ebay then :?:

there always going to be more than the normal e30 engine as people use them as upgrades more than as a replacement, same goes for 320i and 325i

:D

If you have a dead motor already look for an E36 lump too. Most likely have lower miles, just swap all the ancillaries from the E30 motor over and drop it in.
Not in E30s any more :(
